Case Study: Southwest Missouri Cyber Crimes Task Force achieves secure, faster forensic data transfer with ZeroTier

Southwest Missouri Cyber Crimes Task Force secures forensic data across 22 counties with ZeroTier

The Southwest Missouri Cyber Crimes Task Force, which investigates internet crimes across a large region, needed a secure and efficient way for its field investigators to transfer highly sensitive forensic evidence without risking interception. Their challenge was to accelerate mobile forensic investigations while protecting data from advanced threats. They implemented ZeroTier to address these secure connectivity needs.

ZeroTier provided a peer-to-peer overlay network that enabled direct, high-speed, and encrypted connections between field devices and central labs. This solution allowed investigators to securely transfer files from the scene, drastically saving time on forensic processing. By darkening the network and hiding devices from the public internet, ZeroTier also significantly reduced the task force's threat surface and protected their critical data.
